Does Hot Oil Spill In The Eye Cause Damage To Eye?

Hi i recently got hot fryer oil in my left eye and want to know if it can still cause damage, a day has passed and I haven t gotten checked yet. My eye is a little sore when I touch it but my vision in the eye looks fine. I washed it when the incident occurred for maybe 5 to 8 mins and before I went to sleep for about 8 mins with breaks in between

Hello!

Thanks for using healthcaremagic.com

i think you may escalate to corneal ulcers.

I read carefully your question and understand your concern.

You should visit your medic as fast as you can, this is something that can escalate fast and you are in risk of developing corneal ulcers.

This is not something that can be addressed online, and even if you have vision on your eye, you still need evaluation.

Kind regards,

Dr. Oscar Martinez
